Summary: Security update for ansible

Details: This update for ansible fixes the following issues: Ansible was updated to ansible 2.4.6.0. The full release notes can be found on: https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/stable-2.4/CHANGELOG.md Security issues fixed: - CVE-2018-10875: ansible.cfg is read from the current working directory which can be altered to make it point to a plugin or a module path under the control of an attacker, thus allowing the attacker to execute arbitrary code. (bsc#1099808) - CVE-2018-10874: It was found that inventory variables are loaded from current working directory when running ad-hoc command which are under attacker's control, allowing to run arbitrary code as a result. (bsc#1099805) - CVE-2018-10855: Ansible did not honor the no_log task flag for failed tasks. When the no_log flag has been used to protect sensitive data passed to a task from being logged, and that task does not run successfully, Ansible will expose sensitive data in log files and on the terminal of the user running Ansible. (bsc#1097775)
